The Judds Announce Winter Tour

Mother-and-daughter country duo The Judds have announced an 18-city U.S. tour - their first for a decade.

Naomi and Wynonna Judd split in 1991 after Naomi was diagnosed with hepatitis.

Since then the pair has occasionally reunited for dates, but "The Last Encore" dates mark The Judds' first full-scale tours in 10 years.

The pre-Christmas concerts begin with a show in Green Bay, Wisconsin at the end of November and conclude with a return to the US Airways Center in Phoenix, Arizona, where the the duo recorded a reunion album on December 31, 1999.

The announcement of the tour comes after The Judds performed at Nashville, Tennessee's Riverfront Park to kick off the 2010 CMA Music Festival on Thursday.

Naomi insists this will be the duo's last tour if personality clashes that have ruined past get togethers rear up again.

She says, "We're pretty ornery. And with us, if it ain't fun, it ain't done."
